American Jews overwhelmingly say they are proud to be Jewish and have a strong sense of belonging to the Jewish people, according to a major new survey by the Pew Research Center. But the survey also suggests that Jewish identity is changing in America, where one-in-five Jews (22%) now describe themselves as having no religion.

The percentage of U.S. adults who say they are Jewish when asked about their religion has declined by about half since the late 1950s and currently is a little less than 2%. Meanwhile, the number of Americans with direct Jewish ancestry or upbringing who consider themselves Jewish, yet describe themselves as atheist, agnostic or having no particular religion, appears to be rising and is now about 0.5% of the U.S. adult population.1...

Rom 2:28-29 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.

LurkerGood to read your post, and a very excellent reference for all of us to thoroughly take to heart as genuine Biblical Christianity has its roots/foundation in the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob - in a very Jewish Messiah - in the Holy Scriptures (the Oracles of God given through and entrusted to them ...to be kept by His people)

So much to learn and grow into in all this!

Off to drive truck, hope to have time to be back on SermonAudio next week

"American Jews overwhelmingly say they are proud to be Jewish and have a strong sense of belonging to the Jewish people,"

Another biblical word which no longer means what the HS intended for it to mean.

Rom 2:28-29 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
